Certainly did enjoy my short chat with Mrs. Rossan at the Retail Merchants office in Culpeper this morning. First time I had been in the office. All the towns are now decorating for Christmas before we have even eaten our Thanksgiving turkey.
A “must” on your list is the parade in Culpeper at 2 p.m. Friday, then visit the stores. YouU get the spirit right then and there.
If you haven’t been in to see the dried arrangement on display at Blue Ridge Dinette, do so at once and leave a donation for the Ladies Auxiliary to the Washington Fire Company.
Better cut this short or Sarah will, as we hope to have the paper ’out Wednesday.
Sarah was' side with a cold and out for several days. We are mighty glad you are bade and feeling your old chirpy self, Sarah. The wish bone can never replace the bade boneSo until next wek folks,
Stay happy
